Given the statement:

Add the difference between 180 and 130 to 70

This can be represented as,

70 + ( 180 - 130)

Difference means there is the operation of subtraction, therefore we use the minus sign. In order to determine the answer of the given problem, we need to subtract first 180 by 130 and then add the difference to 70.

= 70 + ( 180 - 130)

= 70 + (50)

= 120

Final answer:
